Since 2012, The FruitGuys Community Fund (TFGCF) has provided annual grants to support sustainability projects on small, independent American farms and through agricultural nonprofits. We believe that small farms play a vital role in protecting our land and fostering an equitable food system. Each year, we award grants up to $5,000 for projects that positively impact the environment, enhance local food systems, and promote farm diversity.
To date, weโve awarded 143 grants across 38 states and territories, with 87% supporting women and BIPOC farmers.
Our Goal for 2025: Reaching New States

- Nebraska
- Minnesota
- Arkansas
- Alabama
- Florida

Applications for the 2025 grant cycle will open soon, featuring a new streamlined application process based on feedback from farmers. Mark your calendar, and share the news with fellow farmers!
